About one in four Pacific University students are the first in their family to attend college. US News & World Report recently offered a series of tips for first-generation students to help them navigate their resources.

This started out as a letter to our students, and it still (mostly) is, but in truth I also mean it as a message to everyone in the Pacific community. As we look ahead to Thanksgiving weekend, I want to let you know how much I care about each and every one of you, and how thankful I am for the genuine compassion you show one another every day.

Join the Art Department’s Ceramics team from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 19 in the University Center multi-purpose room for the first annual Empty Bowls Fundraising dinner, which benefits local non-profit HomePlate.
